How do I measure this antler
« on: November 27, 2020, 12:48:08 AM »
I found this shed a couple years ago and I'm not real sure on how to measure it but I am curious to what it would score if both sides were matching. Would the three points with the tape on them be the abnormal points? Would these measurement seem right? I'm not sure what the inside, outside and tip to tip measurement would be so i have no idea what measurements to add to get a conservative score. Any guesses on scores? I couldn't tell you if this would be a 250" bull or a 350" bull.

I'm not sure why these other pictures didn't show up on my first post.

I think you did good on the abnormal points.   

Conservative score would be to match the other side to its typical measurements and add an average inside spread.
